Please phone to check stock. MicroBee - superblyExpandable The problem with rrlost personal micros, such as the TRS80 and APPLE lies not such much in the basic machines, but in the cost of expansion. Once you have mastered the base machine, getting it to do any more is very expensive. MicroBee gets around this by having a special plug-in top board. We call it the Core Board. The MicroBee is supplied as standard with a Core Board which takes up to 32K RAM (16K supplied), 16K ROM BASIC, and a further 12K ROM (for Monitor Program, Networking ROM , or your own custom ROM programs). A factory change fits a new Core Board so you have 48K RAM , an 80x24 screen format, and are ready to run CP/M 2.2 with disc drives. MicroBee is a new generation design. It is designed to grow painlessly in the ways we have found most computer enthusiasts will want to move. Sofhvcre Growth. Because it's Z80 based, MicroBee has a huge software base. And it's a base which we're improving all the time. MicroBee runs all the MicroWorld BBASIC software. Newly released software for March includes- Eddttor Assembler in ROM Write machine code software on your MicroBee. BEEBUG monitor lets you examine and modify memory. Supplied with full operator's manual. Preprogrammed ROMs fit straight onto your MicroBee. $49.50 Cassette Software The following programmes are supplied in machine code on cassette. All are $6.95 each. Pilot A simple programming language used extensively in computer aided instruction. Chatterbox Experiment with artificial intelligence as the computer answers your questions and actually carries on a meaningful conversation. Type Drill Teach yourself to touch type. This program draws a keyboard on the screen and as you Noe it indicates the keys pressed and the correct fingers to use. Target The computer screen comes alive with enemy aircraft and you have to blast them out of the sky. Trek Take command of the U. Enterprise and destroy Klingons from surrounding galaxies. No hidden extras with MicroBee! You get full case, power supply, IC sockets, 16K BA= in ROM, 20K Continuous Memory RAM, full function keyboard and much more. Don't buy a computer kit which has less.
